CD Stuck in radio

I have a 2004 Malibu that just ate a CD...or so it would appear. I know for a fact that there is a CD in the radio, but every time I hit the eject button, the readout "No Disc" appears in the radio window.... any thoughts on how I might go about removing this? Any help would be GREATLY appreciated....

Re: CD Stuck in radio

Don't know. I also do not understand WHY there is no 'Pin Hole' on the CD/DVD players in any make of cars.
The 'Pin Hole' just like on your computers drives that allow you to stick a pin (I use a paper clip) to force the door open and get the disk out.

TRY to Think Outside of the Box!
Dag-Nab-It! I missed the thread titled:"Woman Kicked Off Train After 16-hour Cell Phone Chat"

Re: CD Stuck in radio

This worked for me.

Figure out what fuse controls the CD player and pull the fuse out for a minute (or more), then replace it (theory being that the fuse acts as a reset button). If you cannot find the fuse, you can disconnect the negative battery cable, but you'll lose your radio presets and other settings. This trick seems to have the greatest chance of success overall.

That worked for me a while back with my '04 Malibu (Epsilon type) that had a CD stuck in it. The fuse panel is on the passenger side of the console under the dash.

Just wanted to give out a great big ol' THANK YOU.... pulled the 10A. fuse this morning, waited a few minutes, reinstalled the fuse and saw the clock flashing 12:00... hit the eject button and out came the culprit... I can only imagine how long I would have waited, or how much I would have paid, if I had taken this into the dealer... Big Props to everyone and and huge Thanks!!!
